Wrong coding in vbseo meta content description

[krisp]

Here is a post in english on a danish forum: Klassisk fåreskindsjakke

The vbseo meta content description is correct in source language, but contains wrong coding for other languages like swedish and polish [URL="Kożuchem Classic[/URL] :

<meta name="description" content="Szukam classic kożuchem. Myaa&gt; la ™, Å ¼ e Redford: Znaleziono Tych cha, Opaka ³ w w NY, ale nie Wiemer, co zrobić jakoÅ&gt; ci: http://www.rafelshearling.com/ Lefty myślę Redford: Found these guys w Nowym Jorku, ale mieć" />

nb vbenterprisetranslator_inpost_translate is edited so it only contains $translated - title is in source and content is in english with lang=en tags around

What is your setting of vbseo option: "Replace the 'META KEYWORDS' Content?"

[krisp]

It is "yes"

[vBET]

According to vBET installation manual:
(Required) Turn off option "Replace the 'META KEYWORDS' Content?"

Please tell does this change make it working.

Makes no difference.

Something that seems a bit strange:

showthread looks like this:

<meta name="description" content="xxx $thread[title] xxx" />
<meta name="keywords" content="thread[title] $vboptions[keywords]" />

<title>$thread[title]<if condition="$pagenumber>1">
 - side $pagenumber</if></title>

I inserted the xxx - I dont see the xxx and $thread[title] is the title not the content. But if I remove the line then the meta content line disapreares along with the real meta content description.

OK so - we will investigate this

Also - it is not strange - vBSEO overrides your value

I am getting this too. In our source the content = "" is backslashed:

<Meta name = "keywords" content = \\ "Teen Forums, forums teen help, teen chat forum teen, pregnant teenagers, teens, teenagers are trying to conceive, adolescent depression, abuse, advice suicide, physical abuse, early pregnancy, dating and relationships, adolescent sexuality, puberty, teen advice forums "/>

I just created a new thread - and created an exception in showthread so it didnt get the vbseo content=

It is now indexed in Google and the text under the link is very irellevant when you search for the title.

I think this must have top priority since it means that threads posted in anything but source language shows up bad in Googles search results ...

Bolded in TODO list

This is quick fix for backslash issue (will be included in 3.3.1):
1. open /includes/vbenterprisetranslatof_functions.php
2. Find there:

$output =& vbet_replaceFirst('<meta name="keywords" content="'.$keywords.'" />', '<meta name="keywords" content=\"' 

3. Replace it by:

$output =& vbet_replaceFirst('<meta name="keywords" content="'.$keywords.'" />', '<meta name="keywords" content="'
